THIRLMERE | LAKE DISTRICT NATIONAL PARK ENGLAND
Places of Interest we visited Thirlmere in the Lake District National Park England .
Before the construction of the reservoir the glacial valley was occupied by two smaller lakes, although various maps show only one, known by various names including Leathes Water, Wythburn Water Thirle Water, and Thirlmere. The growth of the industrial city of Manchester during the 19th century had led to an increased demand for water. The water level in the valley was raised by construction of a dam by Manchester Corporation Waterworks at the northern end of Thirlmere, in 1890–1894. The reservoir supplied water to Manchester via the Thirlmere Aqueduct which is 95.9-mile (154.3 km). John Frederick Bateman was advisor to the corporation for both projects.
The creation of the reservoir flooded the village of Wythburn and the hamlet of Armboth, with the loss of a school, vicarage, inns, farms and houses. Only the hamlet of Steel End (at the south end of the present Thirlmere) and Wythburn Church (above the reservoir on the east) remained. New housing was created at Fisher End and Stanah. east of the northern end of the reservoir.
There was strong local opposition to the construction of the lake and the Thirlmere Defence Association (TDA) was formed to oppose the parliamentary act which was required before work could begin. The TDA opposed on the basis that raising the water level by 50 feet would submerge the dramatic cliffs which then surrounded the lake and a receding shoreline in summer would expose the smelly and unsightly lake bed. The organisation managed to stall the Bill in Parliament in 1878, but the Act was passed in 1879.

Helvellyn from Thirlmere, Lake District 2nd January 2019
A walk up to the 3rd highest point in England, Helvellyn.
The route is one of the shortest routes up to Helvellyn and starts from Swirls Car Park next to Thirlmere. We take an out and back route, the descent route being the same route as the ascent route.
My two brothers, Eric & Gary were with me along with Eric's partner Tracy and Daisy the dog. The path from Swirls Car Park is fairly steep in places. Total Distance is around 4.5 miles.
